The debut novel by Josephine Hart, reissued as a Virago Modern Classic - a chilling exploration of physical passion and psychological darkness.
'Damaged people are dangerous. They know they can survive.'
Damage, Josephine Hart's debut novel, an international bestseller, filmed with Jeremy Irons and Juliette Binoche, now takes its proper place as a Virago Modern Classic. Here is one of the most chilling explorations of physical passion and dark, obsessive love ever written.
'A remarkable first novel of awesome accomplishment and quite startling psychological insight.' - Ruth Rendell.
